No, I have Test Case that clicks the download button and i want verify/assert if the file is downloaded or not. I tried this code, but this is only working on my local. When I run this in Katalon Testops, it’s not working.

Thread.sleep(5000)
				String home = System.getProperty("user.home");
				File userDownloads = new File(home+"/Downloads/");
				File[] listofFiles = userDownloads.listFiles();
				boolean found = false;
				File f= null;
				for(File listOfFile : listofFiles) {
					if(listOfFile.isFile()) {
						String FileName = listOfFile.getName();
						if(FileName.contains("RED-T98")) {
//							File fileD = new File(home+"/Downloads/"+FileName);
//							fileD.delete();
							listOfFile.delete()
							found=true;
							break;
						}
					}
				}
				try{
					assert found==true;}
				catch(Exception e) {
					Thread.sleep(2000)
					assert found == true;
				}

Hi @cagus,

Welcome to our community. Thank you for sharing your issue.

Based on your code, I think that your handling is not quite correct. I would like to suggest the below code and let me know if it works/ not. Thank you

String home = System.getProperty("user.home");
File userDownloads = new File(home + "/Downloads/");
boolean found = false;
int retryCount = 0;
int maxRetries = 10; // Adjust based on expected download time

while (!found && retryCount < maxRetries) {
    File[] listOfFiles = userDownloads.listFiles();
    if (listOfFiles != null) {
        for (File listOfFile : listOfFiles) {
            if (listOfFile.isFile() && listOfFile.getName().contains("RED-T98")) {
                found = true;
                println("File found: " + listOfFile.getName());
                break;
            }
        }
    }
    if (!found) {
        println("File not found, retrying... (" + retryCount + ")");
        Thread.sleep(2000); // Wait before retrying
    }
    retryCount++;
}

assert found : "File RED-T98 was not downloaded successfully!";
